gosh.. i doono who to concentrate.. Y/R or the guy singing... live... fantastic.. and oh yes. .. her dress. how could you not obssesed with her dress...?? they are the best!!!!
Yulia has its own grace and glamour on the dance floor... they're the most stunning couple here which justifies their being being a winner in this competition... MJ also has their own style and i so much admire it...
Shirley Ballas is the reason why Yulia winning the title, I think. Years ago Yulia and Max sponsored a workshop for Shirley to come to New York. I was lucky to witness their close relationship . Yulia is a wonderful person and a very talented dancer. I am sure Shirley had offered her a lot of secrets to Yulia who became even better than they were the champions in the U.S. already. Very few people knew that Shirley has taught Corky and her son to be good dancers, now Yulia ! YouTube Dancewu net
@georgewu5 I told Shirley Ballas that when I learned the Simply Beatiful Latin video, I learned from her, not Corky. She said, " Don't tell him that. " George Wu, AIA 2011-10-14
I am very sad. With Slavik as a yard stick, I feel very sad for the future of Latin dancing if What all Riccardo could do is moving his legs around, so fast as to camouflage most of the time,without any solid basic trainning, and without any Cuban Motion....Then why didn't Slavik win instead? Well, it is a long story. I do not have enough space here to go into that today. All I could say is that I am prejudiced, I only wanted to learn from Slavik. He is my only teacher I could learn from.
While I agree on your points about Riccardo, Slavik is a far cry from his years with Karina and Elena. You could say it's politics that got them into the final in the first place. Should've gone to a couple who's able to produce body rhythm without sudden death of movement.
@AceyBlade The Birth Order Book by Dr. kevin Leman, offered reasons why people are the way they are. Being a first born,Slavik could make himself the best dancer in the world is also to limit his adaptability to dance with, say another first born lady. Very much like the experience I went through in my own marriage, a first born married to another first born. There was not a good day from the begining ! Ballroom dancing is much like a marriage, unlike a Marathon running alone.George Wu, AIA
@AceyBlade even Anna and Slavik are not in the picture here this time. Let me guessed a litltle bit see if I could improve my observation. Anna is a natural beauty. She is most likely a first born, the way she ignored Slavik's lead in a very complicated routine is the reason why Slavik could not be at his best. Although Karina is also a first born to dance with the first born Slavik, but she yielded to him most of the time probably out of the respect; but Anna did not !!!!!!!! George Wu, AIA
I'm just going to ignore this first born talk, which seems very random and out of place, but this:
"the way she ignored Slavik's lead in a very complicated routine is the reason why Slavik could not be at his best."
Is complete and utter bullshit. Slavik's leading has been shit ever since he split with Elena. You can actually see Slavik putting Anna in messy situations and RELISHING when she does a mistake. It's appalling to watch.
@AceyBlade I think I have to give up on you. You are a dynamite, can explode at any time to go to a mad house very soon! Do you have a mental problem? I guessed you do ! You are hopeless ! George Wu,AIA 2011-10-14
I dislike Joanna's dancing. Great dancer, great technique, athleticism, speed and flexibility, yet I never really like ANY of their dances. Strange given their talent, but their style does not seem Latin to me at all, and Joanna needs to try something different with her hair, that butch white hair is hideous!
@CDAFishboy I don't like Joanna too! She's a snub OLD LADY. If she doesn't need anything from you she'll snub you. Believe me I met her many times in a competitions.... she's a FAKE!!!
Years ago, Yulia and I were in the same workshop by Shirley Ballas. The impression of my conversation with her was that she is a very lovely person. Dancing these days proves that she is extremely talented. I am not surprised that she became the World best Latin female dancer. Riccardo? humm!
I love the partner switching!!! Too cute!!! What a great way to show sportsmanship :) Does anyone have other videos of this Winners Dance? I would love to see more of the dancing.
to michael is ABSOLUTELY not at all "the love of the public, the audience is our best reward" I can totally see the disappointment in him , it's scary to see people can be this unprofessional, Joanna as always, a lady. she's the better half. ;
@HM8290 they just lost a world title AGAIN....... i dont view his attitude as unprofessional lets be honest he cud've been alot more rude and asserting of his unhappiness than he was. that he didnt do anything more rash i think is his professional mark.
@DancesportReviews didn't even stay for the last dance. Way to respect the audience. " no, NOW that i am pissed off, Im not gonna dance for you" a title is a title, character is who you are! and IF a title makes you feel more important or accomplished..I feel compassion and pity for you.
@HM8290 not staying for the last dance was a bit uncalled for,they must've been really upset then, and in general a title does make you feel more accomplished because even if you know you are putting in a wealth of work and knowledge noone else acknowledges it as much until you bear a title of note otherwise everyone would be satisfied to just dance the first round. But graciousness in the face of defeat is usually a difficult pill to swallow esp when its a world title, can't say i blame him
@DancesportReviews: Aahh, you're here too. This time making excuses for M&J lack of a personal character, respect for others. I agree with @HM8290 that personal character is more important than a title, even a world title. It defines who you are, and your excuses also defined who you are. Now I truly understand your comments on the "results" video. You are an entrenched M&J supporter, lacking in a personal quality, honesty. Even your screen name screams it.
@IX19UT8O wait wait wait....so because i am a M&J supporter you made the assumption that i am lacking in personal character, are you serious?! so what you are saying is that anyone who doesn't agree with you is lacking in personal character, please note how i kept all my comments related to what I observed about the dancers and tried to be as open minded as possible simply because i have never met them and more importantly i have never lost a world championship...have you????
@IX19UT8O I am not about to sit behind a computer screen and judge the personal character of people i have never met, because i know that they are just that, people. people with dreams and aspirations and emotions that they can't always control, I have never attacked Y&R on a personal level for the same reasons. And what you are saying is that the judges who placed M&J first and thought that they deserved the title are also "lacking in personal quality".
@IX19UT8O and what exactly is my screen name "screaming" Dancesportreviews.......really....what exactly does that scream other that " I review dance sport". In future please refrain form making personal assumptions about people because they do not agree with you, and where in any of my statements about M&J did i say that they were right for not doing the group honour dance, if Y&J had lost the title and not done the dance i wonder if you would be as harsh on them.
@IX19UT8O yes i support M&J for than i support R&Y this however does not give me the right to attack Y&R character or the character of their supporters, i never have done this and i never will.
